Jt. - Thursday, September 241964 Pcge 4 The Daily Nebraskan tha A V' 41 S I 1 iv ft 1 S i I i A 5 I ' ' dsJ Rood Awakening Back Again Every now and then one of those professional students pops up around this institution with a winning football team. To define, a professional student is a fella who's been around so long, he can remember midnight hours and no Selleck Quadrangle. They're easy to spot ... or not spot Is more exact. They can't be found in class (excepting hour exams) or the bookstore (until a week before finals), their advisor's office (they know how many housr they need and if they've fulfilled their science requiremt) or the library (unless a three-month fine left over from spring must be paid). Motives vary from the obvious yet another degree to the logical avoiding the draft. Others are still searching for good old Utopia. Now Take Monte Some would just as soon be out, but they're here due to circumstance, an element which tends to botch up plans occassionally. Monte Kiffin, who won three letters as a Husker tackle, would just as soon, be playing that same position for the Minnesota Vikings of the National Foot ball League, but that's not the way things turned out. During his third week of rookie camp, Kiffin's knee began to swell up after practice sessions, so the Viking coaches told him to return home and try to work it back into shape. Monte's been giving it a go, but the knee hasn't been responding to rest and light workouts, so he's en rolled again at NU to work on his Master's Degree in edu cation. "After the second week, I thought it was going to be all right," Kiffin said. "But then I started having trouble again, so the coaches told me to come home." The Viking coaches put their 15th draft choice at of fensive right tackle where It's pretty tough to break in as an inexperienced rookie. "They push you pretty fast," Kif fin said. "If you're a rookie you go at it right away, es pecially on offense. There's alot to learn if you're on of fense and you really study alot at night." It's not the first time injury has cut Kiffin from a full season. In his early Husker days a bad back slowed him after coming to NU a highly touted All-State and All America out of Lexington. He also played in two high school All-America games. Back in the Togs But his being out of the Viking picture for a year aoesni mean tne Z3i-pouna Kimn won't be. around the girdiron. Monte will handle the defensive line coaching chores for freshmen coaches John Melton and Cletus Fisch er this year. And he's got plenty of beef to work with. A quick look at the frosh roster shows but one tackle, guard or center under 200 pounds with one lad scaling in at 305. The backs are nothing to overlook either. Included in that picture are Al Fierro, Big Springs, Tex., quarterback who passed for 241 yards in the second half of Texas 12-6 loss to Pennsylvania in their high school all-star game; Ben Gregory, who scored the winning TD in that fray from Uniontown, Pa.; Paul Critchlow, Omaha Benson speedster named the top back in the Shrine Bowl game; quarterbacks Denny Morrison and Miles Kimniel and halfbacks Marv Mueller and Al Kuehl, 210-pound Wis consin star. Of course, the varsity squad interests Monte and he figures the Huskers will have a good season if the young linemen progress. The indicator will be this week's game with Minnesota of the Big Ten, where the worst team al ways has a tough line. I'll have to confide in those young linemen and count the deep backfield to call it, NEBRASKA 13, Minnesota 7. Husker Headliner Jeter Cains Award (Editor's Note: This fall the former Star of the Week award will be known as the "Husker Headliner." As in the past, each week some Husker athlete will be sin gled out for special merit.) Junior end Tony Jeter con tinued the stellar defensive play and crushing blocking that he d i s p 1 a y e d in the Orange Bowl last January to snare the Daily Nebraskan's first star of the week award. The West Virginia import pounced on two Co, te fum bles last. Saturday to set up touchdowns that turned the contest into a complete rout. Jeter is currently majoring in physical education with an eye toward a career in physical therapy. Tony cur rently plans to enter a therapy school following his stint at Nebraska. Jeter has membership in the Kappa Alpha Psi social and the Phi Epsilon Kappa professional fraternities. He chose the Husker cam pus because he liked coach Devaney and his staff. Tony spends what spare time he can muster from foot ball and classes engaged in several of the intra-mural sports offered on the Corn husker campus. When it comes to relaxa tion, Jeter listens to the various jazz records that he is able to obtain. He is a particu lar fan of the modern progres sive sound. . . . ball hawk JETER i 3 I 'll O "j jl .I ' ' uiw nl y, x4&ts MEIER ASSUMES NEW POST-Joel Meier, who has spent the last six months in Puerto Rico with the Peace Corps, will be the men's intramural director this year at the University. Mortar Boards 'Tap' Worthy Junior Women "Service, scholarship, and leadership" are the require ments for membership in the Black Masque Chapter of Mortar Board, senior women's honorary.

This week's award is pre sented to former athletic dir ector Bill Orwig who has the dubious distinction of being the man who scheduled the series of opening games with North Dakota-S o u t h Dakota teams. These games we are told, have been financially profit able. They have also been a drain on Rig Eight prestige College Open House The College of Pharmacy of the University is present ing an open house Oct. 4 from 1 to 8 p.m. and Oct. 5 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. for the pur pose of informing the public about pharmacy and its var ied and related fields.

They have been little but glorified scrimmages. Husker coach Bob Devaney said on television this week. er.d that frankly he was happy the South Dakota North Dakota series was over. Frankly, so are we. So hats off to Bill Orwig is the first recipient of Benchwarmer Award.
